Ms. Wickramanayake also attended various high-level events, including the Global Partnership for Education Financing Conference in Dakar, Senegal; the II International Forum on Eliminating Female Genital Mutilation, in Banjul, The Gambia; and the 8th Africa Conference on Sexual Health and Rights in South Africa. She also met with the UN Country Teams, as well as the donor community in every country and had engagements with local media outlets.

Ms. Wickramanayake also met civil society leadersand other key partners to discuss the unique challenges and opportunities faced by young people in Africa.

During these engagements, the Envoy raised awareness on the importance of investing in youth development to build a more sustainable and peaceful future. The main themes emerging from the mission included: youth investments, employment creation and skills building; sexual and reproductive health and rights; ending harmful practices such as female genital mutilation and child marriage; and promoting young people’s participation in leadership.

    whale spotted in illinois river A humpback whale was spotted near Morris IL in the Illinois River today. The sighting comes just days after 2 Great White Sharks were seen frolicking in the same area. While not impossible, it does seem unlikely. It is thought that the whale may have followed the sharks as they sometimes do in the wild. The whale would of had to travel over 1250 miles to get to this location. The Marine Biologist Association will be in town for a full investigation. Until we have answers, we are asking folks to keep their pontoons and fishing boats docked.

    two great white sharks found swimming in mississippi river near saint louis, missouri. While it is not entirely impossible, it is incredibly uncommon for salt water dwelling creatures to stay for lengthy periods of time in fresh water. However, two Great White Sharks have managed to survive the trip and make their way up the Mississippi River somehow. Believed to have started as a mating couple, the two are assumed to have swam the 920 mile journey from the mouth of the Mississippi River that is connected to the Gulf Of Mexico. Officials in Saint Louis have contacted the Missouri Conservation Department and will likely have a team in the river soon to capture the two lost sharks.
